This 4- to 5-mile walk leads you through Monument Valley Park and the historic Old North End neighborhood with its Victorian homes, mansions, and cottage houses (dating back to the 1870s). Many of Colorado Springs' specimen and unique trees are tucked away in this neighborhood with its protected sites and good soils. Take this walk in each season to take in the different coloring and shapes trees provide in our landscapes.

The neighborhood is also filled with many old and large silver maples, green ash, Siberian and American elms, blue spruce, white fir and other evergreens. See the brochure, Trees for Colorado Springs, to find out which ones might do well in your yard.
